Hear what the Lord says. Because they have failed to listen, I will surely bring calamity on them which they will not be able to escape; and though they cry out to Me, I will not listen to them. [Jeremiah 11:11]. I will pursue them with sword, famine, and plague. I will make them a horror to all the kingdoms of the earth—a curse, a desolation, and an object of scorn and reproach among all the nations. I will do this because they have not listened to My words, which I sent to them again and again through My servants. [Jeremiah 29:19].
Therefore, disaster and devastation shall be their portion. For the days will come upon them, when their enemies will set up a barricade around them and surround them and hem them in on every side and tear them down to the ground, them, and their children. And they will not leave one stone upon another in them. [Luke 19:41-46] because I have spoken to them and they have not listened, I have called to them, and they have not answered” [Jeremiah 35:17]. Damnation and devastation will be their portion.
So, do not pray for these people or lift up a cry on their behalf, for I will not listen. [Jeremiah 11:14] because they refused to listen when I called, and no one paid attention when I stretch out My hand. So, since they disregarded all My advice and did not accept My rebel, I in turn will laugh when disaster strikes them; I will mock when calamity overtakes them like a storm, when disaster sweeps over them like a whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm them. Then they will call Me, but I will not answer; they will look for Me but will not find Me, since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the Lord, they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with the fruit of their schemes. For the waywardness of the simple will kill them, and the complacency of fools will destroy them. [Proverbs 1:24-32].
I the Lord has spoken, and My Words shall not return void! [Isaiah 55:11].
The Lord rebukes his people for their disbelief. [Isaiah 48:1-11].
